Premiere: Rainbow Patrol - “More”
Drawing inspiration from the Palm Desert stoner rock scene and Australian neo-psych sounds of the 2010's, Lethbridge Alberta’s Rainbow Patrol are catapulting out of their slumber with reckless abandon. As expected of a band that has existed for the better part of the last decade but only sporadically emerges to create a whole lot of noise before disappearing underground again, there’s been some line-up changes. Now, founding brothers Chris and Travis Arnoldussen have been joined by newer additions Richard Charlton and Jacqueline Kennelly. Together they’ve signalled their return with the track “More.”
As explained by Charlton:
"More" is a frantic and scathing summary of modern working class inequality and shifts our lyrical focus from cosmic imagery and psychedelic musings to something more tangible and urgent to people's experiences near to us. Playing and writing music is something many of us would do more if there wasn't the constant need of making more, saving more and doing more.”
The song is available everywhere today and we are very excited to give you the premiere in the form of a glitched-out video supplied by Calgary's EZ Idiot. Even better news is that this single is just the beginning. The band has more singles coming through in May and June, culminating with new EP on June 26. Enjoy “More” below and support the band by purchasing tunes from their Bandcamp Page.
Finally, if you’re in Lethbridge I see no reason why you wouldn’t be at the Owl Acoustic Lounge this Saturday, April 4th as Rainbow Patrol will being playing with Trismegestus and Vancouver's Burnt Lung.
